Super Furry Animals lyrics - The Teacher The Teacher

Want to come home from school coz it's a drag
And when I come home from school I'm gonna pack my bags
And when I come home from school I'm gonna run away
And then I'll just start a band then learn how to play

And before I know it I'll be back to life (X2)
La la la la la la la la la la la la
La la la la la la la la la la la la

When I come home from school I'm gonna have a drink
And when I come home from school I'm gonna start to think
And when I come home from school I'm gonna burn my books
And when I come home from school I'm gonna write some hooks

And before I know it I'll be back to life (X2)

La la la la la la la la la la la la...
(The teacher...)
(Help, help, help)

Quote (Gruff):
"That's a song about Bunf. He's very inspiring and I'm sure he gets pissed off that I've written so many songs about his hamsters and his career. This is a ridiculously upbeat pop song which may sound like it's from a child's perspective, but it's actually from the teacher's perspective. It's probably the most stupid thing on the record. That was a decisive moment in putting the record together. Putting that song on the record changed the record completely. We could have stuck The Matter Of Time on, which is really laid back, and that would've changed the album into something more self-indulgent. So when we put the album together, we decided to make it more concise."
